Jamaican Cream Pie
Ingredients:
– 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
– 1/4 cup sugar
– 1/2 cup melted butter
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
– 1/2 cup lime juice
– 1 tablespoon lime zest
– 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
– 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
– 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
– Whipped cream and lime slices for garnish
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix well until the mixture resembles wet sand.
3. Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish, forming the crust.
4. Bake the crust in the preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
5. While the crust is cooling, in a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
6. In another bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, lime juice, lime zest, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice until smooth and well combined.
7. Gently fold the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture until everything is fully incorporated.
8. Pour the creamy filling into the cooled graham cracker crust, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
9. Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until set and chilled.
10. Once the pie has set, garnish with dollops of whipped cream and slices of fresh lime before serving. Enjoy the creamy, tropical goodness of your Jamaican Cream Pie!
